Rhynoskin insect apparel?
« on: April 23, 2014, 07:19:00 PM »
Has anyone tried the Rynoskin insect body armor clothing? It's supposed to protect against biting insects, chiggers, no-see-ums... What are your thoughts?

I use the gloves. It is kind of like camo panty hose material and works on biting gnats which is what I bought them for. It is not exceptionally durable so it is best for blind or stand hunting.

I used a  Rynoskin head net/cover for yrs here in La. It was the only thing that ever kept the no-see-ums out. Now skeeters had no problem biting through it, but I'd rather be bit by skeeters than no-see-ums! Wore a regular headnet for skeeters. This was before thermocell.

Yeah but will it block yellow flies??  Those muthers, dang it, I have not found anything besides DEET that deals with them.  They will bite through anything close to the skin, only thing I have found that works is layering.  And that sucks when its 93 degrees in September here.

Chuck you are correct there is nothing worse than yellow flies. The worst place that they bite me is on my hands.
